Converse Theorem of Jacobi Forms


For every Jacobi form of index m and weight k with Shimura type, an associated system of L-functions is given. These functions can be analytically continued to the whole complex plane and satisfy a kind of functional equation. As a consequence, Hecke's converse theorem on modular forms can be extended to this context.
